and instructing physical activity programmes and applying
appropriate behaviour change strategies for clients presenting a
range of low- to medium-risk medical conditions. Exercise
Management for Referred Medical Conditions is the first book to
integrate exercise prescription with the development of healthy
behaviours and the promotion of physical activity and well-being
and provides students with an evidence-based, applied guide to
becoming effective exercise referral practitioners. The book draws
upon the latest research and recommends best practices for creating
referral pathways, providing exercise programmes and engaging
clients in health lifestyles. Covering the pathology, medical
management, role of exercise and recommendations for programming in
each case, it discusses a range of conditions, including: Obesity
and type I and II diabetes Hypertension and dyslipidaemia Asthma
Low back pain, osteoarthritis and joint replacement, rheumatoid
arthritis, and osteoporosis Depression, anxiety and stress
disorders Consistently organised and laden with pedagogical
features, including learning objectives, key terms, case studies,
future developments and chapter summaries, no other book offers
such a clear, holistic model for exercise referral. This is a vital
resource for any student undertaking vocational courses in exercise
referral and an important reference for exercise scientists,
physical therapists, fitness professionals or local policy-makers
interested in the use of physical activity in healthcare.
